In 2 Tim 2:1-7, Paul instructs Timothy to engage in disciple-making, while recognizing that the Christian life is not easy. While all Christians are commissioned to live on mission with Jesus, we need God’s strength to accomplish anything of value.
Prayer Guide: October 3, 2021 – 2 Timothy 2:1-7
1. Thank God for the grace that is found in Christ Jesus! Praise Him for His undeserved favor in your life.
2. Ask God to give you strength to live for His glory. Ask Him for grace to live and love like Jesus and to teach others to do the same.
3. Pray that God will increase your compassion for the lost and open doors for you to speak the gospel to those who are apart from faith in Christ.
4. Confess to God your passivity when it comes to disciple-making and spiritual multiplication. Ask Him to give you a willing heart to be used to help others know and love Jesus more.
5. Ask God to give you single-mindedness, discipline, hard work, and faith as you live the Christian life.
6. Plead with God for grace and direction in our Worship Pastor search. Ask God to send us solid candidates for our team to consider. Pray for patience, for church members and committee members, and for greater trust in God’s timing.
